‘The use of FOAMGLAS® in a pitched roof situation ensures an airtight construction, eliminating the problems caused by ingress of water and penetration of cold air into the roof space. As well as providing outstanding thermal characteristics, FOAMGLAS® is impervious to attack by vermin, insects or birds. FOAMGLAS® is totally non-combustible and cannot contribute to a fire nor give off toxic fumes or smoke; it is also totally free from HCFC, HFA and pentane. All these physical properties remain totally effective for the lifetime of the structure.'
